COMMESDATIOS OF TUB DEMOCRATIC SENATE
I
Independent journals like the Phfia-.
delphia Times can see occasion for com
mending the Democratic Senate . for
having departed so far from Republi- j
can precedent as to have admitted Mr.
"RaIK nf "New Tlamnshire. to his seat in
the Senate, when there was nt least; ;
plausible technical reason why the seat ';
should have been denied him. AVhile.
we do not hold that the Se:
more than its duty in i
stance, it is refreshing to
that body is once more
that it can do that. It ah
Irary to Republican usage,
rise above the plane of
take statesmanlike grounds, and decide
legal questions upon their merits, with
out reference to partisan predilections.
Upon the. recent ' decision t in the Bell
case theF
as follows:
It should not le a matter of surprise
that the Senate has decided a claim to a
seat in that body on other than partisan;
considerations, and yet strictly partisan
decisions have been so long the rule in
hnth thd houses tot C6nfcres; that the
new rlf parturc in the oaeo of Mr, TV1I,
is equally gratifying and surprising,

the New Hampshire Senators have so
of teifsoMhtTbp dfpriye certayi South
ern States of iftieir reprtsentitlon in the
Senate, in idqfiance jaf the letter and
spirit of the constitution, the fact will
not be overlooked that the rights of
New Hampshire would not have been
respected in this- matter had not seven
Southern Senators taken her part Thi$
looks very like heaping coals of fire on

AX UNJUST VERDICT.
RailroadCompanies seem to have no
rights which courts and juries feel them
selves bound to respect. About eigh
teen months ago Hon. Edward Conig
1 and, a distinguished , lawyer, of Hali
fax, was walking along the track of the
Wilmington & Weldon Railroad, near
the town of Halifax, and the wind be-

OOOforiie jilaiiftifft his is nothing
short of an intolerable outrage. Mr.
Conigland was upon the company's

Such a verdict would not have been,

have sustained, is an argument which
does not at all touch the merits of the

questions of equity arising which are

In view of the frequency of such ver

be insertecl M the juror's oalh a proviso
to this effect : "Provided, However t that

emerged from his retirement long
enough to write an article, which was
published in the Philadelphia Times
criticising the generalship of President
Grant, .and which created much com
ment both North arid South about that
time. It has been stated that he was
engaged for the few last years of his
life in writing a history of the part
taken by his native State, in the late
war, but we do not believe the work
has ever been published. It is to 'be
hoped that the book is so far completed
as to give an intelligent idea of his
campaigns and that it may yet be
to the public.
Thus has passed away another of the
distinguished generals who adorned
Southern heroism. May the green sod

Itis endorsed by the direct personal testimony
of men of national - fame and of strictness of
speech. It is not too much to say that no medicine
ever had such support in its favor as a specific.
The word of any one of the eminent divines who
underwrite this antidote to dyspepsia has deserved
weight Their united witness joined with the ex
perimental nseAftd approval" otthe preparation by
well-known 1 physfefaas, removes, all doubt It is,
beyond question, a wonderful therapeutical agent
